Calories 542kcal

Ingredients

  • Wooden skewers

Shrimp

  • 1 lb Shrimp peeled and deveined
  • 4 tbsp Extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 cloves Garlic roughly chopped
  • 1 tbsp Brown sugar
  • 1 tsp Paprika
  • 1 tsp Chili powder
  • 1 tsp Garlic powder
  • 1 tsp Onion powder
  • 1 tsp Ground cumin
  • 1 tbsp Lime juice
  • 3 tbsp Fresh cilantro chopped, plus more for garnish

Tomato Mango Salad

  • 1 cup Grape tomatoes quartered
  • 1 Mango peeled and diced
  • 10 Mozzarella balls quartered (use marinated mozzarella balls if available)
  • 2 tbsp Extra-virgin olive oil
  • 3 tbsp Fresh parsley chopped
  • 1 tsp Honey

Instructions

  • For the tomato mango salad: Mix all ingredients together in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside to marinate until ready to serve.
  • Soak the wooden skewers in water. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. (Make sure grates are clean, and then grease them with non-stick spray.)
  • For the shrimp: Combine all ingredients except the shrimp in a bowl; using an immersion blender or place ingredients in a regular blender or food processor; blend until smooth. Pour marinade over shrimp and gently stir to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for 25 minutes, folding gently about halfway through.
  • Thread shrimp onto skewers.
  • Grill the shrimp for 3-4 minutes per side, or just until shrimp are no longer opaque and have some nice char. (Smaller shrimp will take less time.)
  • Serve the shrimp with tomato mango salad. Garnish with cilantro.
